The papers in this special section examine the use of fuzzy analytics and stochastic methods in the field of neuroscience. Recent theoretical and technological advancements provide new and deeper insights into the fundamental mechanisms of information processing in the neural system. This important process is accompanied by the tremendous rise of experimental data, which are waiting for further exploration. Modern methodologies and tools from neuroimaging, brain imaging, optogenetic devices, and in vitro and in vivo multielectrode recordings today generate high-quality neurophysiological data with a resolution quality that has never been reached before. These accelerating developments offer promising pathways to enhance our comprehension of the nervous system. Most innovative approaches of computational neuroscience lead to more realistic biophysical models that provide amazing chances for refined analyses of intracellular signaling and dynamics in heterogeneous neural networks, intrinsic connections of space-time processes, multisensory integration, and conditional behavior or links between brain regions in economic and daily-life decision making. Significant computational challenges arise from the high complexity of neural systems and the large number of constituents with yet unknownfunctional interconnections.

Modeling of dislocation-grain boundary interactions in a strain gradient crystal plasticity framework ÖZDEMİR, İZZET; Yalçınkaya, Tuncay (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2014-08-01) This paper focuses on the continuum scale modeling of dislocation-grain boundary interactions and enriches a particular strain gradient crystal plasticity formulation (convex counter-part of Yal double dagger inkaya et al., J Mech Phys Solids 59:1-17, 2011; Int J Solids Struct 49:2625-2636, 2012) by incorporating explicitly the effect of grain boundaries on the plastic slip evolution. Within the framework of continuum thermodynamics, a consistent extension of the model is presented and a potential type non-...
A Two-Tier Distributed Fuzzy Logic Based Protocol for Efficient Data Aggregation in Multihop Wireless Sensor Networks SERT, SEYYİT ALPER; Alchihabi, Abdullah; Yazıcı, Adnan (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2018-12-01) This study proposes a two-tier distributed fuzzy logic based protocol (TTDFP) to improve the efficiency of data aggregation operations in multihop wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Clustering is utilized for efficient aggregation requirements in terms of consumed energy. In a clustered network, member (leaf) nodes transmit obtained data to cluster-heads (CHs) and CHs relay received packets to the base station. In multihop wireless networks, this CH-generated transmission occurs over other CHs. Due to the ado...
On the smoothness of solutions of impulsive autonomous systems Akhmet, Marat (Elsevier BV, 2005-01-01) The aim of this paper is to investigate dependence of solutions on parameters for nonlinear autonomous impulsive differential equations. We will specify what continuous, differentiable and analytic dependence of solutions on parameters is, define higher order derivatives of solutions with respect to parameters and determine conditions for existence of such derivatives. The theorem of analytic dependence of solutions on parameters is proved.
On the foundations of parameter estimation for generalized partial linear models with B-splines and continuous optimization TAYLAN, PAKİZE; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm; Liu, Lian; Yerlikaya-Ozkurt, Fatma (Elsevier BV, 2010-07-01) Generalized linear models are widely used in statistical techniques. As an extension, generalized partial linear models utilize semiparametric methods and augment the usual parametric terms with a single nonparametric component of a continuous covariate. In this paper, after a short introduction, we present our model in the generalized additive context with a focus on the penalized maximum likelihood and the penalized iteratively reweighted least squares (P-IRLS) problem based on B-splines, which is attract...
Deep Hierarchies in the Primate Visual Cortex: What Can We Learn for Computer Vision? KRÜGER, Norbert; JANSSEN, Peter; Kalkan, Sinan; LAPPE, Markus; LEONARDİS, Ales; PİATER, Justus; Rodriguez-Sanchez, Antonio J.; WİSKOTT, Laurenz (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2013-08-01) Computational modeling of the primate visual system yields insights of potential relevance to some of the challenges that computer vision is facing, such as object recognition and categorization, motion detection and activity recognition, or vision-based navigation and manipulation. This paper reviews some functional principles and structures that are generally thought to underlie the primate visual cortex, and attempts to extract biological principles that could further advance computer vision research.
